The UFT is more concerned about their buffets than about their members - Let them eat Quail! Mulgrew should invest in some diction lessons, a hair transplant and a tailored suit - also a visit to a priest, minister, rabbi or therapist to discuss moral behavior as it regards to honest representation for those he purports to represent.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15921757.post-15486285152620075622016-10-09T23:48:53.305-04:002016-10-09T23:48:53.305-04:00UFT is so crooked.

The DOE can freeze the salaries based upon their evaluation? Wow?: Information about Performance-Based Salary Step Transactions in the September 15 Paycheck <br />All schools <br /><br />September 15 paychecks included salary step adjustments for specific annualized UFT instructional employees paid below step 8b, based on their June 2016 or prior year performance ratings in the Employee Information System (EIS). Affected employees had their salary step frozen, continued frozen, or restored as appropriate. Notification letters were mailed to employees at their home addresses. <br /><br />You can view detailed salary information for your staff members by taking the following steps in the EIS:<br /><br />• Access the EIS Option 2.6 (Table of Organization Processing).<br />• Enter the individual EIS ID number. Press enter.<br />• View the Person Inquiry by PTF Screen.<br />• Press F4 to access the window.<br />• Select the window Option 2 (Display Employee Salary History). Press enter.<br />• View the Salary History screen and explanatory message which appears on the top.<br /> <br />Announcements about performance-based salary freezings and restorations for Advance-rated teachers will be announced in a future edition of Principals’ Weekly.<br /><br />Affected employees with inquiries about these transactions can call HR Connect at 718 935-4000. The Payroll Secretary Support Line is also available at 718 935-4003.<br />Unitymustgo!https://www.blogger.com/profile/14117390123313141745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15921757.post-41820929688947465932016-10-09T16:05:48.151-04:002016-10-09T16:05:48.151-04:00We must keep these teachers working 24/7.

First let's close the Office of Curriculum Development and throw out all the scopes, sequences, curriculum maps, and binders with the accompanied lesson plans. Next, let get the worst possible textbooks money can buy (from Pearson, of course), insuring that these books can't be used. Try to buy a personal copy machine! because there's no money for paper, ink, or a <br />Xerox machine. Now let's add extra working time to Monday's and Tuesday's, we'll use this time to tell you how terrible you are. Then let's get rid of grade books and put everything on the ridiculously named Schedula - but instead of putting grades in once a term, grade them each time they come to class (and you better pass them, even if they don't show up). Now let's add Common Core to make sure they get proper work. Now let's align CC to NY State standards. Now, let's make they are all aligned to NYC standards. Now let's make sure that those lesson plans follow the format given out by your individual school. Now lets make sure that your lesson is delivered according the bribed educator Ms. Danielson's methodology. The UFT and Mulgrew? They are irrelevant in every possible way.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15921757.post-33761405064528013812016-10-09T14:55:39.754-04:002016-10-09T14:55:39.754-04:00Observations are a much bigger problem than curric...Observations are a much bigger problem than curriculum or paperwork for most of us.

You can read it right there in the excerpt above that they must give an additional prep or per-session after school to write curriculum if they request that you do it. If they were teaching us "how" to write curriculum in PD that would be different but no they are expecting it to be written and given to them for free. Where is the money from the budget for curriculum going if I am writing it for free? Not to mention the conspiracy theorist in me that thinks they will take my curriculum, written by a vet teacher, and hand it off to a newbie that costs them half of what the pay for me after they run me out of the profession.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15921757.post-80522752870241106152016-10-09T10:45:40.303-04:002016-10-09T10:45:40.303-04:00Such a joke.
